CF airway microbiota prior to incident NTM infection are associated with subsequent outcomes, including diagnosis of NTM pulmonary disease, and persistence of NTM infection. Associations between airway microbiota and NTM outcomes represent targets for validation as predictive markers and for future therapies.
